Company Highlights

Ocular Therapeutics Represents a $10B+ Global and Growing Market

GB-102, a Dual Anti-VEGF/Anti-PDGF Therapeutic, Enables Once Every 4 to 6 Month Intravitreal Injections (2-3 vs ≥ 20 injections per year)

• On track for IND in 2016 for wet AMD indication

GrayBug Technology Solves Key Challenges for Sustained Ocular Delivery• Injection with small gauge needle – no surgical procedure• Minimal side-effects, no interference with visual axis• Tunable approach – release rate and duration

Exclusive Rights for Technology• Worldwide rights from Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins University• Patent Protection to at least 2030 (additional filings ongoing)

Technology Enables Broad Portfolio of Ocular Products• Age-related macular degeneration (wet & dry), glaucoma, neuroprotection, etc• NCEs for glaucoma and neuroprotection as a novel technologies• Potential for Product Specific Partnerships; Aerie Pharmaceuticals Deal

Experienced and Knowledgeable Team• Ophthalmology & Drug Delivery Experts

Challenges with Current GlaucomaDrugs

• Current approved glaucoma products require daily or BID topical dosing

• Patients are non-compliant with therapy (72% in controlled setting; 50% or less in clinical practice; Quigley et al)

• Lack of compliance leads to neurological complications and loss of vision

– No compounds are approved for neuroprotection & trials may be challenging to prove effects

• Sustained release versions of prostaglandins (PG; e.g. lantanoprost, travoprost) are in development

• Sustained release of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (CAIs) complicated by solubility in aqueous solutions

• Need drugs with IOP lowering and neuroprotection

Library of compounds being synthesized to address these challenges
